The process of making a grill skewer

Brazier is an outdoor barbecue equipment. It is ideal for preparing delicious meals that the whole family can enjoy. Braziers come in different types and shapes, but you should pay attention to one of the most common - the model with a spit.

An electric brazier for skewers is a real comfort for relaxation. It can be used in the country, the beach, in the sanatorium. It allows you to have a great time with your friends. Even novice cooks will not have any problems with it, because it does not require any special acquired skills. You can buy an electric drive in any store or make it yourself. The whole point of cooking is simplicity. It will only be necessary to remove the finished meat and enjoy the rest.

To equip a ready-made grill with a spit, you will need the following tools:

• a drill is necessary to create holes in wood products;
• the grinder is used for sawing metal products;
• bicycle chain or belt;
• at least eight pieces of gears;
• A screwdriver is used to unscrew screws and nuts, you cannot do without it.

In addition, an electric motor is needed, but it can be replaced with a car drive.

There is a situation when there is simply no ready-made barbecue, then you can make it yourself.

To do this, you will need the following materials:

• metal rods;
• device for replacing the handle;
• small knife;
• welding device;
• ruler or measuring tape;
• electric saw.

The process of making a barbecue includes several stages.

• The plates must be clamped in a vice and drilled holes in them; the distance between the holes at the bottom of the plate should be noticeably less.
• The structure is further cooked from these plates.
• After that, you should very carefully weld the corners, which will be used as legs in this structure.

Before you build a skewer, you first need to think about its length and diameter, as well as prepare all the necessary materials. If the skewer will be used to grill small pieces of kebab, then a rod up to a few millimeters thick should be used. To make the carcass of a small animal, you need to choose a skewer from a rod 10–12 mm thick. If you want to make large pieces of meat (for example, from a ram), then it is better to use a rod with a width of 13 to 17 mm. The length of the spit depends on the size of the barbecue.

If suddenly the barbecue was not nearby, then you need to make such a placethat will keep the meat above the flame. A spit with the product is placed on top of it. Steel rods should be of the same type, thanks to this, the load will be uniform. Several pairs of rods should be stacked in two. Due to the presence of gaps, the spit will hold well and securely next to the fire.

A skewer differs from an ordinary swivel by the presence of a handle. With its help, you can securely hold the carcass for even frying, periodically changing its position. Barbecue fire is a real enemy that can ruin a long-awaited and delicious dinner. You can make a handle from absolutely any product you come across. A bicycle handle or a piece of pipe can be used.

The handle must be attached to the main structure. For reliability, it is better to weld it to the product.If you can't find anything, then some curved end of the rod, even the most ordinary one, will do. The main thing here is to get a lever. After that, you can make a rod of any convenient shape. This will ensure convenient cooking of the meat. Hands should be far from the scorching fire, so the metal that goes beyond the limiters must be made at least one meter.

It is possible to make an electric spit, but more knowledge and time is needed. The electric model provides the process of cooking meat quickly and easily, and the kebab is juicy.

The process of making an electric rotisserie includes the following steps:

• you can make a couple of plates from steel sheet for the drive;
• a peephole must be cut on each plate;
• a sprocket should be attached to the walking shaft, which can be removed from the bike, and then a gear to create a transmission;

• such a device must be fixed on a plate, and then put on a shaft;
• on the other side, the next gear is placed through the bearing;
• gears that are farther than the handle should be fixed on the skewer;
• you need to attach the engine to the leg of this barbecue;
• pull the chain to the base;
• attach the supports on the opposite side of the barbecue.

So that the process of cooking meat on a grill with a spit brings joy, you should pay attention to several important nuances.

• The skewer support must be placed on a flat surface so that it is in a horizontal position and does not create problems when preparing a kebab.
• It is better to make the handle of the skewer longer than usual, so that there are no problems when frying meat and when moving the skewer.

The grill spit is an important element that is of great importance for the preparation of juicy and tasty meat.
